Besides VA Beach... or Northern NC
We are planning on saving money and driving for vacation down south in mid-April (we live in Virginia). Which of these cities would be better for a 5 - 6 day vacation? We are NOT looking for good clubs or nightlife. We also are trying to avoid the Easter vacation crowds - I figured either of these cities would be better than the beach.
Ok, i know its really stupid of me to write a book set in Virginia, but i read a article in a magazine about it and i new it was the perfect place... well... I sorta changed it... but anyways, these are my questions to the Virginia peeps: 1. in September, does it rain, snow, or just regular sunny...? 2. do people surf at the beaches? 3. are there mansions and like rich communities? 4. were there private schools, if so were there snobs there like any other private school? 5. any other helpful stuff about Virginia would be MUCH appreciated! Especially if there is like prostitution behind closed doors and stuff... juicy truth is what i like in my stories. Something i never go back on, Use the truth when your somewhere you've never been! =] thanks for the help!
I'd love to hear from anybody who is younger and fresh out of college who headed to the Washington D.C. area. (I'm 23) I'm moving from Madison, Wisconsin. Do you enjoy the area? I've heard people in the area are 'generally unfriendly' is there truth to this? As long as I don't mind being holed up in a small studio apartment... is the cost of living doable on a 50k salary? How is the nightlife/singles scene? Is it easy and/or cheap to travel to NY or Virginia beach by rail? How is the metro system? I'll be taking it to Alexandria for work unless prefer biking? How is biking in the area? Sigh, if I can get any information from any of these it'd be very helpful... I'm moving in about 2 weeks. Thank you very much.
Yeah, I've been posting a lot of surfing questions lately, but this is my last one. Do you guys think a Quad, in general, is a good type of board for semi-small Virginia Beach waves? (If it has to be specific, I'm gonna get a 6'4" Bat-tailed Hotline board.) Yeah, I've asked the local board shops and stuff, but I want another opinion. Thanks! sorry, the thing i was really trying to ask is is a quad also good for small waves, like is it able to catch them and hold it?
I was looking at pictures and it looked kinda drab and reminded me of the town in "I know what you did last summer." Would Virginia Beach have more options for things to do?
I live in Virginia Beach on the east coast and there are a lot of small waves. I already surf, but I'm basically a beginner, and the board i have is not that great for these waves. I was just wondering what people think would be good for 2-5 foot waves.... a regular fish or a quad. Right now I'm keeping my eye on a nice quad that is 6'4" and seems to be wide enough for the conditions i surf under. (in case it matters, the board i have now is a 6'2" shortboard. It's pretty broken up, my cousin passed it down to me.)
Me and my boyfriend are planning on going to Virgina Beach this June for our week vacation. We live in North Carolina, so its not too far. Anyway, we need advice on what to do. We have never been before. Any advice on things to do, where to go, where to stay would be great. Any websites that we can get on to send us a brochure? Any websites with good info on Virgina Beach? Oh we are 22 and 25 years old so nightlife would be great too! Thanks!
I live in Centreville.. like 40 minutes away from dc.... what is the best beach to surf.. closee to here??!!!
I am going to Virginia beach the weekend of the 1st for the Rockstar Mayhem Festival with one of my best friends. We are 18 and 19. We're just wondering what is the nightlife like? No we dont drink (underage obviously) but what about some clubs, live music or dj is cool, also any kind of music. What are some good restaurants to check out too? anything else we should try to do while we are there?
